1. I stayed sober and used the line 'Sorry, I don't drink' for the first time in my life! It felt good saying that.
2. I repierced my belly button by myself (read the post below for the gory details!).
3. I decided to go to Singapore to study, instead of going to Australia.
4. I was woken up by the delightful Abby with a long-distance phone call from Canada.
5. I burst into hysterical giggles during yoga class when everyone was meditating. There was someone in the class that squeaked and buzzed like a mosquito everytime she breathed in, and that cracked me up so hard, my body was shaking and I nearly had to walk out of the class because I was disturbing everyone.
6. I went out with my dad for dinner 3 times, which is the most I've ever gone out with my dad in a week.
7. I no longer have dreams about falling down and not being able to walk. A few weeks ago when I was stuck in the drinking cycle, I kept having dreams about falling down and not being able to get back up, and when I did finally get up, my legs wouldn't support me so I would fall down again. My mum interpreted my dream for me when I told her, and told me that once I was firmly determined to sober up and stay sober, the dreams would stop...and they have!
8. I found out from talking to my mum that I am still to be grounded during the evenings and nights for 2 months. *sigh* I guess 'grounded' wouldn't really be the right word, but it's more like if I do go out at night and come home drunk, she's sending me straight to rehab, which I absolutely do not want.
9. I filled in the application forms to study in Singapore! Wooooo!
10. I noticed more definition in my stomach muscles when I looked into the mirror at yoga class yesterday! Yay :-D
11. A guy from my yoga class asked me how old I was, and was totally shocked that I was 20, because he thought I was 15. How is that possible??? No wonder I always got carded when I went to bars...people always say I look 15 or 16...oh well, I'll be laughing when I'm 40.
12. I bought 2 pairs of trousers from Mango, and they kinda shrank in the wash, so they're a bit too tight for me, but I'll wear them anyways because they cost a lot.
13. I made new friends at church and might be going to a movie with them this Saturday!
